Unidos: Linking Individuals to Social Determinant and Community Health Services

Status unconfirmed

Conditions studied: Chronic Disease, Community Health Workers

In brief

For 19 years, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded Arizona Prevention Research Center (AzPRC) has been engaged in academic community collaborative research to reduce chronic disease health disparities among the Latino border communities in Arizona. Our research project, Unidos: Linking Individuals' to Social Determinant and Community Health Services, will result in a model Community-Clinical Linkage intervention to reduce chronic disease risk among Latinos in Arizona. Further, the investigators expect this intervention model to be applicable in other regions and populations. To execute this research, the AzPRC will implement the intervention in partnership with county health departments and Federally Qualified Health Centers. In Unidos the county/community-based CHWs will: 1) support and connect participants to health promotion resources; 2) provide individual and group-based support guided by a novel framework for understanding Latino's health advantages, the sociocultural resiliency model; and, 3) leverage community resources to help individuals address SDH-related needs.
